Air-Pressured Paint Photography

Liquid Jewel by Fabian Oefner is Vibrantly Splattered

— August 7, 2013 — Fashion
Liquid Jewel by Fabian Oefner, a photographer based in Zurich, Switzerland, is a photo series that may seem familiar to some. That is because it is quite similar to Oefner's past work including Black Hole, Nebulae and Dancing Colors. Clearly, paint is his go-to medium.

In this case, however, Liquid Jewel by Fabian Oefner revolves around the use of air pressure to create the compact circular shapes. The images were achieved by also using modelling balloons covered in paint. Oefner writes, "What I particularly love about the images is that if you look closely, you can see, how the individual shades start to mix with each other, blue and magenta becomes violet, red and yellow becomes orange."
